hi i bought a seat, was ment to be out of a 3 door like mine but it does not quite work the same for example...
when u pull the handle on my seat it flips forward and the whole seat moves forward with it allowing access to the back but ...
the seat i brought flips forward but the whole seat don't move , so it's quite hard for people to squeeze in ,anyone know if it's because it's a 5 door seat or because it's a older version of mine ?

Is it a GTI Seat? Sit in it, and try and move the seat back and forth with the seat adjuster under the front. Somtimes they stick.

Look at the tilt handle on the side of the seat.
The 3 door & 5 door seat handles are different
The 3 door handle should have a picture of tilt with an arrow pointing backwards & also another picture of tilt & slide with the arrow pointing forwards
5 door seats only have the picture of tilt with backwards facing arrow.
NOTE: This also depends on if someones ever previously changed the seat handle & fitted the wrong one
